Details

Areca leaf plates by Leaf & Fiber are manufactured from the fallen leaves of the Areca Palm tree. The tree is endowed with huge leaves and fronds, which shed and fall to the ground every few weeks.
These leaves are turned into disposable plates, bowls and platters as an alternative to plastic, styrofoam and paper plates.
The material does not react with food and will not add any additional taste or chemicals to it. All manner of wet foods can be served without the plate or bowl becoming soggy and losing its integrity. Areca leaf plates are nature's own solution to the harmful results of using paper and plastic disposables.
The fallen fronds of the Areca Leaves are collected, pressure cleaned and sun dried. Then, they are heat pressed to produce the appropriate plate and bowl shapes. That's it. No chemicals are used during the entire manufacturing process. Each plate is handmade with care.

Surprisingly Strong!

We ordered this for our backyard wedding. I was skeptical about the durability, but they are surprisingly strong. I am pretty impressed and think they will work perfectly!

After looking at several different compostable plates we chose these for my daughter's wedding - perfect for the picnic style meal. Now I'm waiting for the smaller ones to come back in stock so we can have them for dessert.

Cute alternative to plastic

I ordered these, and also the knives/forks/spoons, they worked perfectly and I got a bunch of compliments. We has some wet foods and they held up great! A tad expensive but for a wedding reception I felt it was worth it.

I am hosting a vintage tiki baby shower next weekend and purchased these plates to add to the decor and theme. They are very thick and will work perfectly for me. Great price, and shipping was quick!

Look pretty!

I purchased these for my wedding in September. The plate size I wanted was sold out, so I purchased these plates. They are beautiful, and will really add a personal touch to the tables--they're practically a decoration in themselves--just wish they weren't so expensive. They are very sturdy and I'm happy with my purchase. Great customer service & fast shipping.

pretty good

As a local caterer in northern Michigan, it's really important to me to provide eco-friendly alternatives for my casual event. These are gorgeous, they hold up really well to the 'pile on' and my customers love them!

I do wish, however, that the shipping wasn't so high. These aren't heavy by any means and the shipping brought these up to almost a $1 per plate.

I do appreciate the quality of all of the eco-friendly options I have ordered from this company. Thank you...
